ACCA becomes latest member of Access Accountancy

The Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA) has become the latest organisation to join Access Accountancy.

Diversity and inclusion are a key part of ACCA’s core values. The organisation said it had been impressed with Access Accountancy’s strong focus on improving social mobility at businesses of all sizes across the accountancy profession.

Lorna Williamson, Early Careers Manager at ACCA, said:

“We’re delighted to continue our membership of Access Accountancy. With Access Accountancy’s focus on smaller firms, we believe we’ll be able to further achieve our goal of supporting SME accounting employers to embrace inclusion in their hiring practices and career paths, ensuring that accountancy can be a profession for anyone, regardless of their socio-economic background.”

Sharon Spice, chair of Access Accountancy, said:

“We’re delighted ACCA has become the latest signatory to Access Accountancy. We look forward to working closely with them in the coming months as we collectively focus on boosting access to and mobility within the profession.”

“ACCA became the 27th member of Access Accountancy in March. It had previously been an Access Accountancy member but left in February 2020.”
